    eMail sent!

    I would have been good with one of three options, so I chose three. I also received three emails, one for each option I would have been good with. I'll send an email response with the email I actually chose, but wanted to echo my hopes that the larger than expected number of outstanding...

    Final preorders, action required

    Hey Craig,     Just wanted to say thanks! A quick update, and keeping existing pre-orders in the loop as to what the status is, and what are options are goes a long way! I had gotten into the habit of checking the news once every four months or so just to find out what has been going on. Seeing...

    Original First Batch Orders - Are You In Craig's Queue? [Please read 1st post]

    Yep, that was me! I placed my preorder 10/3/2008, went through the whole credit card fiasco, and repaid by bank transfer when requested. 4.5 years waiting as of this Wednesday. I hope I'm top of the queue at this point!

    Ous!

    sounds like a great project, I'm definitely interested in working on a port, just have to find the time. Who would be best to contact on the Osu dev team to start talking about getting code to start a port? Peppy or Nuudles? If I get the time, I might start browsing their forums to check for...

    Pandora Looking For A Few People To Get Prerelease Pandoras

    I'll throw my hat into the ring. I'm planning on working on a few projects eventually, and could step up my plans to start earlier if given the opportunity ;) 1) OpenGL ES game engine - I originally considered writing my own (good coding exercise), but would probably be more efficient at this...

    Offical Tv-out Cable

    Are the pins removable from the connector? If they are, remove a few and make sure that the missing pins on the other side are located at the pins that you expect. Use the EXT port schematic as reference as to which pins should be which: http://wiki.gp2x.org/wiki/EXT good luck!

    Usb Host Port

    Video Ipods can use video and audio on the same port without messing up headphones because they don't use the "standard" AV cable connection (which sounds like it isnt actually standard?). Anyways, check out this guide, which is for making your own video ipod AV cable from a "standard" av cable...

    Lug Presentation

    Hook up the GP2X to the projector (with wifi or a hardwired connection for network access) Use VNC to access your computer at home. Run your presentation from there that outlines the capabilities of the 2x Finish your slides by revealing that you've been running it through VNC on your 2x...

    Any Speed Improvements With Better Sd Cards?

    I have no idea whether this is accurate or not, but I have a slower-marked card (40X), and I seem to have some trouble with the video player locking up when its rescaling video and outputting it to TV-Out simultaneously. I heard that this is a known bug that only occurs with certain SD cards...

    GP2X Gp2x Kernel Upgrades

    Is it currently possible to upgrade the linux kernel in the 2x to a 2.6.x kernel instead of a 2.4? There are some features of the 2.6 that I'd like to see (built in bluetooth support anyone?). Best case scenario I see the need to recompile a new 2.6 kernel configured however necessary to fit the...

    Psp Umd On Its Last Legs

    Some of you may have found this on digg, but here is a news article discussing how the movie studios are dropping UMD like it made racist comments regarding their mothers: http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060330/tc_nm/...salmediadisc_dc The best part, however, is this quote: (Feingold is...

    New Xgp Pictures

    Could be interesting - looks like a nifty little unit, and the extra power & 3D support would be great. HOWEVER, unless they have drastically changed their stance on homebrew (which is yet to be seen), it is more or less worthless to me - if I wanted a handheld with good 3D support for...

    GP2X Floating Point Vs. Fixed Point Benchmarks?

    The float is going to reach infinity because it is overflowing. I have not tested to see what FLT_MAX is on the ARM architecture of the GP2x, but on my PC it is 3.40282e38. That would mean that it would reach infinity at the 956th loop. Meanwhile, I'm guessing that the implementation of fixed...

    GP2X Floating, Fixed Point Math

    Note to self: I should really save posts like this until I'm less sleep deprived You two are certainly correct. I realized this about half an hour after I made the original post. I have it straightened out now, though, thanks for the explanations. Irrlicht looks pretty darn nice...

    GP2X Floating, Fixed Point Math

    So, I'm starting to work on a 3D Library I'm designing for the GP2X (yes, another 3D lib being worked on, this one designed for performance from the ground up hopefully), and am having a difficult time deciding what internal representation of numbers I should use (floating point, fixed point...
